Common Kingfisher catching fish

Common Kingfisher catching fish recorded at Amalsad, Gujarat, India.
Common Kingfisher/ Small Blue Kingfisher is a beautiful little blue-and-orange kingfisher with a long, pointed bill. It's fun to observe this bird diving at lighting-fast speed, felt like a blue-bullet to catch small silver fishes.
It perches usually 1-2 m above the waterbody, periodically turning around and bobbing head and body to gauge distance when food is sighted; dives steeply and catches prey below water up to the depth of 1 m; using its buoyancy and flapping the wings, it rises through water bill first and flies back to its perch, where no perches available hover before diving.
kingfisher has an average success ratio of 3:1 in catching prey during a 2-hour period. Despite any failures, it remains a diligent hunter, keeps trying and searching for food nearby.
